I was privileged to have a conversation with the author at one of its launch events in Worcester. It's well worth reading, both on leadership, and as an intro to Dr Iain McGilchrist's thinking. And this is a really helpful review from Eve Poole

Why do writers not research basic information? In this book (otherwise part of an enjoyable series) we begin with all the churches of London being looked after by the Archbishop of Canterbury's Vicar General, and the Dean being addressed as "Your Grace"! amazon.co.uk/Murder-St-Paul…

The biggest surprise for me in the new deprivation stats: Worcester has a higher proportion of highly deprived neighbourhoods than Dudley. (But Dudley has well over triple the population so far more deprived people.)
